Relationships between Femoral Offset Change and Clinical Score following Bipolar Hip Arthroplasty in Femoral Neck Fractures.
Article in Hip & pelvis, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeThis study aimed to investigate the relationship between femoral offset (FO) and clinical outcomes of patients with femoral neck fracture following bipolar hip arthroplasty (BHA). MATERIALS AND
methodsRecords for a total of 520 patients who underwent BHA for a femoral neck fracture between December 1, 2003, and September 30, 2018, were reviewed retrospectively. Patients with unclear medical records, a congenital deformity and preoperative trauma history of the hip, high-energy multiple trauma, or a history of neurodegenerative disease or cerebrovascular disease were excluded. The remaining 77 patients included in the analysis had a minimum follow-up period of one year. For clinical assessment, the postoperative pain visual analogue scale (VAS) and Harris hip score (HHS) were analyzed at each follow-up period. For radiological assessment, the difference in leg length discrepancy (LLD) and FO were measured.
resultsThe difference in mean FO postoperatively was 6.7±4.8 mm, and the difference in mean postoperative LLD was 4.9±3.4 mm. The mean HHS was 77.1±7.7, 82.3±8.6, 83.4±7.7, and 86.4±6.7 at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperative, respectively. The correlation coefficient between FO and HHS in 1-year follow-up was -0.38, and a statistically significant outcome was found (
conclusionThere was a statistically significant correlation between clinical outcomes and FO difference at 1 year after BHA in patients over 65 years of age with femoral neck fractures.
